Nigrum stood as Shadow approached him trotting with her head in a small dip towards him. The sign of submission made him smile inwardly. He was glad she thought he was worthy of submission. Shadow had always been a good soldier and Nigrum would give seven wolves for one of her. She came up with a squirrel in her mouth which meant she had more luck than him that morning in the hunt which pleased him.
"Morning."
"Good morning to you too Shadow."
"Hungry, at all?"
He didn't even have to think before speaking,"As much as I am honored by your offer I would prefer for you to share that with one of the others than me. I will be sure to find something later when we go hunting for bigger game together. Enjoy your hunt and rest we have a long day ahead of us." With that Nigrum turns and heads into the den to check on Ayala and the rest of the pack. He knew that Shadow had good intentions but he preferred to starve and let the pack eat before himself.
